MY MISSION: to show how you can win in life and business using the strategies of poker even if you have never played the game.I am the creator and CEO of PokerDivas, a unique and innovative leadership program that uses poker strategy techniques to teach business and leadership skills, build strong team dynamics and relationships, and develop confident negotiators.

I am also a published author of PokerWoman, How to Win at Love, Life and Business using the principle of Poker, showing how thinking like a poker player can make professionals smarter, more confident, and more successful, with compelling real-life stories to prove it.In addition to running PokerDivas, I am also a Senior Marketing Advisor and Consultant, specializing in health, beauty, dietary supplement, and personal care product marketing and brand innovation, and bringing products to mass retail. I have launched over one billion dollars in products (am I sounding like a McDonalds commercial yet) applying Fortune 500 brand management principles and direct response advertising efficiency and metric applications. Some of the key launches I have contributed to include Gray Away Root Spray, GoldFlakes Vodka and Finishing Touch Flawless Beauty a billion-dollar brand, selling over 100 million units in mass retailers.I am passionate about helping women in business go after what they want, and get what they are worth whether it's increased confidence, strong negotiating skills, or dealing with difficult people. I believe that the strategic risk-taking skills I developed as a recreational poker player have transferred to the conference table, and that understanding the human dynamic is essential for success, whether it's reading people at a poker table or understanding the consumers buying your product. It's all about the people. I would love to hear from you if I can help you in any way.GET IN TOUCH: Ellen Leikind PokerDivas 646.450.1905 ellen@pokerdivas.com www.pokerdivas.com
